Ptolemy Soter

Ptolemy I Soter I also known as Ptolemy Lagides, c. 367 BC – c. 283 BC, was a Macedonian general under Alexander the Great, who became ruler of Egypt (323–283 BC) and founder of both the Ptolemaic Kingdom and the Ptolemaic Dynasty. In 305/4 BC he demanded the title of pharaoh.

Dawn of Man

Oh Great Diadochi, Basileu and Pharaoh Ptolemy I Soter - The Savior! You led Egypt through the turbulent times of Alexander's the Great death, and formed your own kingdom that would soon become the center of Arts, Sciences and Commerce of the hellenistic period. On your legendary Capital, Alexandria, you built great wonders of the ancient times such as the Great Lighthouse and the Great Library, that succumbed to the sands of time.

Oh divine Basileu, the time has come, for the envy of your rivals, to reinstate the Ptolemaic Dynasty! Can you defeat all that oppose you, and secure the legacy of the ptolemies?. Can you build a civilization that will stand the test of time?

Introduction: Be welcomed to the greatest kingdom of this era! Gaze upon my wonders that touch the very skies of Egypt, and then head back to your puny homeland.

Introduction: Ah, another foreigner. Come and share the knowledge of your lands, or let it be forgotten to the sands of time.

Introduction: This is my marvelous city. Spend as much time as you want

Art by TarcisioCM

here, for once you head back to your home, you might never again see such wonderful sight.

Defeat: You may have defeated me, but my wonders shall live forever!

Defeat: I am the pharaoh! I am the king! I command you to die!

Defeat: No! I am the true diadochi! I am a god! How could this have happened?
